[NTLUG:Discuss] (Re: Prodigy and Linux) ugh sorry about last message

Hey, cool--all I needed was to make my flash address
my userid--I'm still not able to connect to all DFW
numbers, though.  Some of the numbers don't seem to
always connect to a modem.  In any case 4463481 does work,
and here's my connect script:

#!/bin/sh

/etc/ppp/setserial

cp /etc/resolv.conf.ruff /etc/resolv.conf

pppd connect 'chat -v "" ATDT2144463481 CONNECT "" ogin: asenec at flash.net word: 123456' /dev/cua2 115200 -detach debug crtscts modem defaultroute 0.0.0.0:0.0.0.0  2>/dev/null
